The Argentine government will resume debate in Congress on a new disability law, focusing on invalidity pensions and mandatory re-registration. The bill replaces one approved by the opposition last year and draws rejection from organizations for eliminating the benefits nomenclature and deregulating health insurance negotiations. It does not address existing debts to providers.

The Supreme Court on Tuesday directed the Odisha government to ensure all basic amenities for an octogenarian woman and her visually impaired son living in poverty in Subarnapur district.
Actress Valentina Bassi described Javier Milei's government's project to reform the disability law as 'nefarious' and a 'step back 30 years.' She argued that deregulating the unified nomenclature would make access to therapies depend on individuals' finances. Bassi, mother of a teenager with autism, defended the current system that ensures equal opportunities.

Värden Alan Cumming tog upp utbrotten och förklarade att de var symptom på Tourettes syndrom, medan BBC senare bad om ursäkt för att inte ha klippt bort ordet från sändningen. Davidson uttryckte ånger och betonade att ticsen var oavsiktliga.
